International Conference on Diabetes and Cholesterol Metabolism

Diabetes mellitus is the most frequent endogenous cause of fat metabolism-disorder. Cholesterol metabolism is abnormal in diabetes. Total plasma cholesterol is increased, and more subtle indices of sterol homeostasis are also disturbed. Hypertriglyceridemia in diabetes is due to an increase of chylomicrons, triglyceride-carrying lipoproteins and the very-low-density lipoproteins. In type I-diabetics the pathogenesis for hypertriglyceridemia is about decreased activity of the lipoproteinlipase, reduced chylomicron-clearance and the impeded degradation of VLDL. More often in non-insulin-dependent diabetics LDL-cholesterol-levels can be seen lifted and HDL-cholesterol-concentration decreased in correlation with the metabolic control. Primary hyperlipoproteinemia shows up regularly in diabetics, but this can be clarified with the association with obesity in type II-diabetics. Dyslipidaemia in T2D is characterised by several strictly linked anomalies: increased fasting and p...

Regular yoga practice can help lowering the blood pressure along with reduction in the level of sugar in the blood, slowing the rate of progression of diabetes and reducing the symptoms, as well as lessening the severity of further complications. The practice of yoga is additionally proven to control increasing weight as well as to reduce weight, which is especially important to keep diabetes in check. Sun Salutation and Kapal Bhati pranayama are one of the leading ways to weight loss. For those pondering how to prevent diabetes or indeed relieve the condition, a number of studies have revealed that yoga can reduce contributing factors and help patients cope with diabetic symptoms. Yoga postures for diabetes switch back and forth between asanas (postures) that contract particular areas of the abdomen and asanas that relax those areas. This alternation between abdominal release and contractions stimulates the pancreas, increasing oxygen and blood supply. As a result, the pa...

Metabolic syndrome could be a cluster of conditions such as insulin resistance, clustering of abdominal obesity, high blood sugar, high blood lipids and hypertension, and increased risk of clotting, stroke, predisposing individuals to diabetes and coronary heart diseases. Symptoms of metabolic syndrome includes: visceral, central, abdominal obesity, particularly, a waist size of more than 35 inches in women and more than 40 inches in men, blood pressure of 130/85 mm/Hg or above, fasting blood glucose levels of 100 mg/dL or above, High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels of 40 mg/dL or less for men and 50 mg/dL or less for women, blood triglycerides levels of 150 mg/dL or higher.  High blood pressure, high blood glucose levels and cholesterol and lipid abnormalities can often be targeted early with lifestyle measures. Losing weight, especially within the upper body  can be a successful treatment . A few measures for preventing and treating abnormal cholest...

The inefficient breakdown of fats foretells later metabolic complications such as type 2 diabetes in women and weight gain. Low levels of hormone-stimulated lipolysis -- a biochemical process by which triglycerides (Cholesterol, lipid) are broken down into energy-rich fatty acids -- were related with weight gain and metabolic problems in future. To detect impedances in hormone-stimulated lipolysis , researchers created an algorithm using clinical and blood measures. Researchers believed that their proposed algorithm could be helpful in identifying subjects with a high risk of becoming overweight or obese. These findings may well be utilized by clinicians to determine who would benefit the most from intensified lifestyle interventions such as physical activity, which improves hormone-stimulated lipolysis and may therefore prevent metabolic disturbances and fat accumulation. Researchers took biopsies of subcutaneous fat tissue from healthy and non-obese 89 women, and followed up 1...

Not all heart attacks report themselves with crushing chest pain and a drenching, cold sweat. A few heart attacks might happen without even knowing it. It's called a silent heart attack . A silent heart attack may be missed because the symptoms are mild or appear like another, less-urgent health issue – such as indigestion, heartburn, the flu, fatigue or an ache-y muscle. Individuals who’d had silent  heart attacks  were three times more likely than those who hadn’t had a heart attack at all to die. Ordinarily, individuals who’ve had a silent heart attack miss out on emergency care that can spare heart muscle during a heart attack such as quick treatment with strategies that open blocked arteries in the heart. They may moreover miss out attention to cholesterol, blood pressure, exercise, diet and stress afterwards that lower risk for future problems. Silent heart attacks are a specific concern for individuals with diabetes . High blood sugar, high blood pressure...
